Summary
“I follow you... because I want to learn. Humans baffle me, as you well know, and I had questions I didn’t understand enough to ask. I want-- I want to be more than just a teacher or an owner, to you, and I don’t know how...” How could he finish what he wanted to say?
Chise took pity on his lack of words by placing her hand atop his snout, reaching over her shoulder and smoothing it up between his eyes. She brought her hand back down to his chest and turned her face into his cheekbone. He could see the glint in her spring green eyes as she strained to look up to him. “Elias?”
“Yes, Chise?”
“You are.”

Summary
There are a couple of unnamed Lionguard in Lion's Arch that joke about being stuck in the Labyrinth after Halloween comes to an end. I thought it would be fun to write a piece from their perspective, imagining what it would be like to be trapped with all the monsters and mobs.
Caeliana Swordsplitter was bored of standing around watching other people have fun. On the last night of Halloween, she and her colleague Eric finished their shift on the plaza and took a trip through one of the spooky doors. They found themselves in The Labyrinth, a realm under the dominion of the maniacal King Thorn. At first, the duo found fun amongst the festive candy elementals. But soon the creepy atmosphere of the realm started to affect them, and the horrors lurking in the depths of The Labyrinth tested even Caeliana's resolve.

Summary
“Anyways, that’s not my point.” She continued after she took her own drink. “My point is, I didn’t agree to your plan. You didn’t ask my permission before jumping off that cliff, but I followed you anyway because I trust you. And it all was fine in the end, because we worked together.” She hesitated briefly before she spoke again. “...I hope you can extend that same trust to me.”
It finally dawned on Braham that they were having that talk he had been so carefully avoiding. He supposed that it was better to get it out of the way now than continue to tiptoe around it the whole time they were stuck here together. “Oh.” He muttered quietly.
*****
The Commander is stuck with Braham in Cragstead until a storm passes over, and she seems to have come down with something serious. When the Commander is forced to place her life in his hands, Braham is forced to reflect on his past, present and future to decide what kind of a person he wants to be.
*Authors Note: Takes place just after living world season 4, canon (mostly) compliant

Summary
The bizarre journeys of a ragtag guild and their adventures protecting Tyria.
Artox Gyr: the guild that defeated Zhaitan. Mordremoth. They were the Dragon-slayers. The Saviours of Tyria. Also the bane of Divinity's Reach on Wintersday, and banned across a number of gambling dens across the land.
Led by: Kveriyan, the guild master and mistress of all things explosive when not napping. Naefai, the guild matriarch, and quite possibly the only sane one amongst the five. Akoni Wolfsbane, (Moa) Hunter-for-Hire and Commander by default because everyone else knew better. And Mystic, certified natural disaster in all five major cities and is widely suspected to be eldritch in nature.
(AU where this guild of misfit characters serves most of the story roles of Commander)

Summary
As she traced through the hostile maze of thorny vines and voracious tendrils of Mordremoth’s realm, she realised how fitting it was that her own heart was ensnared in an evergrowing hold, coiling like ivy and tightening with every moment under the canopy.
Seeds planted one by one with every little moment - small attentions, whispered encouragements and lingering glances, stolen in the heat of the battle – blossoming and reaching towards a gentle light, burying roots into her soul till it smothered her and stole her breath away.
A bitter harvest of battles lost and lives forsaken.
A darkness beckoning him to succumb.
And raging against the cries and the roars of the Dragon, a call more beautiful.
“Our fates are bound together. I’m not leaving without you.”(A Trammander, Trahearne lives AU, where Mordremoth gets his leafy arse kicked twice and our local goth fern gets his saved.)

You, the sylvari Commander, are about to walk into Palawa Joko's lair and face him down for what he's done, but you doubt he can even be killed.
So what's the next best thing?
The answer to 'could the commander just talk Joko out of revenge', a question I asked myself and then immediately answered, 'yes but only if they fucked'.

Summary
After the train explosion on Pandora, three vault hunters remain, and the fourth Maya goes missing. Zero stumbles across her after she is almost mortally wounded by a bullymong and nurses her back to health. A strange form of love begins to blossom between the Assassin ans the Siren. But love never comes easy on Pandora. The Vault Hunters find themselves sent to the town of Overlook in search of the cause of a 'curse' running rampant amongst the townsfolk. What they find, they were never prepared for. Jack's playing with nature results in the creation of an otherworldly infection that turns men to beasts, and Zero finds himself undoubtedly infected. Zero becomes a host to a creature unlike any other, slave to the transformation. He is then faced with the very real fact that everything he is, could destroy Maya.
A wild tale of love, transformation, beasts, the fall of Pandora.

Summary
A second go at an idea I've had for ages. Where Pandora is still a trash planet. Where Handsome Jack is still a monster. Where our beloved Vault Hunters are still as hungry for a fight as always. And where I can reconcile some silly little self indulgent wishes that didn't come to be in BL3.
